Silhouette?
1 Attachment(s)
I have been trying to use up strips from my scraps (leftovers from my Spiderweb) and I have this scrappy lappy and I am trying to disguise the fact that it is pretty ugly. I will be adding a scrap piano key border to use up more scraps but I thought I might add a silhouette. This one I think needs to be about twice as big or leave it off?

Your definition of ugly does NOT match mine! I think this is wonderful and the silhouette adds a dash of whimsy ... LOVE this! but then I love scrappy and strip pieced blocks. Great job. I don't even think you need to add the piano keys, I like it as it is.

very cute! it looks good as is- or if you want it would still look good enlarged. either way- adorable quilt!
|
Beautiful as it is! Wonderful silhouette. Thanks for a great idea.
|
I love it and the silhouette is a great touch and yes it could be bigger or maybe more than one????Whatever you do it's not ugly to me but I LOVE scrappies of any kind!!!!!
|
Love your addition to this quilt. Maybe a little bigger silhouette but either way - really cute.
|
It's a terrific scrappy! The silhouette is a fun idea! Perhaps make it bigger, or maybe add another-? It will be great whichever you decide. :)
|
What a super idea! The silhouette is perfect and the blocks look like rain falling! Great job! Beautiful scrappy!!
|
Your scrappy looks great!! Good idea on the silhouette.
|
Ugly? No No....it's beautiful! And the silhouette is darling! I'd make it larger. Piano key border would be nice too but it's fine as it is now. That silhouette idea is great!! But by no means is this ugly!!!
|
way to be creative
nice |
Cute quilt and love the silhouette idea!
|
I love the silhouette. Maybe you could add a few large rain drops in the same color.
|
Well it's sure not ugly. The silhouette is a great idea.
|

oh my! I ABSOLUTELY LOVE LOVE LOVE YOUR QUILT! It was beautiful before the silhouette but the silhouette adds something even more to it! I agree with you that the silhouette could be a bit bigger. I love how it looks like she is walking through rainbow rain!! If you still think it is "ugly" then by all means you can send it my way :) I would love it and hug it!! :)
|
I would make the silhouette bigger. The stripes remind me of rain and the silhouette will be the perfect compliment to this quilt. Congratulations. Not ugly at all!!!!
|
I just love your quilt and I do love scrappy quilts...I made one but with a different design, now I want to try the all one way like yours....Also the black really sets it off.....thank you for the
|
I love scrappy quilts....I think they are awesome...never ugly! great quilt in my opinion!
|
it's a great scrappy.
|
I think the silhouette a little bigger, but not from one black line to another; either shorter, taller, or placed in the middle of the blocks. Just imho.
|
The black sashing really makes it look good.. My group has done many of these. I actually add a wider black border too so I have a wonderful plce to put feathers. I love the silhouette.
|
Love your scrappy
|
A delightful, beautiful quilt. Love the silhouette just as it is.
|
LOVE your quilt - just add a 2 or 3 inch border, and you're good to go! Lovely!
|
Ugly what? You are not talking about the quilt in the picture. Are you?
Great idea to add the silouette. Either way bigger or as it is. I like the idea of the small because it surprises you when you find it instead of drawing your attention. Thanks for sharing and please re-think your adjective. It is beautiful! |
Love scrappy, I would just add two calming borders to direct the eye to the quilt itself. I don't think you need anything but anything is what you apparently CAN DO. The unexpected can be fun but larger would detract from your quilt.
Think about where you cut out is going and how your little person will get there! Thank you. |

Here is the silhouette bigger. What do you think?
|
The quilt is just adorable! The little girl really makes it cute. I noticed some red with white poke-a-dots fabric at the end of the next to the bottom row. If you could find some more of that, it would make a great 3" border. Thinking the piano keys would make it very busy. It will sure make some little girl very happy!:o
|
I love it exactly as it is. The Silhouette is the perfect size, made me do a double take, as it was an unexpected surprise.
|
I like it the way it is. I agree that piano keys would make it look too busy. It just needs a 3" - 4" border and that will do nicely.
|
I like it, sorry you don't.
|
Just beautiful, great job and thank you for sharing, love the scrappies
Have a Blessed day Ellen |
I like it with the silhouette! Awesome job!
|
i don't see anything ugly about it at all love the silhouette
|
that is so cute, love the silhouette, just enough whimsy to make you smile. I love the scrappy quilts, and this is not ugly.
|
IT IS NOT UGLY! I repeat, it is not ugly! Love the silhouette!
